Approximately what percentage of Earth’s radius is represented by the crust?

Physics
1 answer:
irina [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Approximately 1% of the Earth's radius is represented by the crust.

Explanation:

Earth is composed of three different layers with different compositions-

The first layer of the earth is the Earth's crust which is brittle and very thin.

The other layers or shells are mantle and the core. These two layers have almost same thickness but the mantle occupies the larger volume of about 84% while the core occupies about 15% of the total volume.

Therefore, crust represents about only 1% of Earth's radius.

Define what is energy and work​
Mashutka [201]

The work-energy principle states that an increase in the kinetic energy of a rigid body is caused by an equal amount of positive work done on the body by the resultant force acting on that body. Conversely, a decrease in kinetic energy is caused by an equal amount of negative work done by the resultant force.

Consider one such cell where the magnitude of the potential difference is 65 mV, and the inner surface of the membrane is at a h
Gelneren [198K]

Answer: W = 1.04.10^{-20} J

Explanation: Since the potassium ion is at the outside membrane of a cell and the potential here is lower than the potential inside the cell, the transport will need work to happen.

The work to transport an ion from a lower potential side to a higher potential side is calculated by

W=q.\Delta V

q is charge;

ΔV is the potential difference;

Potassium ion has +1 charge, which means:

p = 1.6.10^{-19} C

To determine work in joules, potential has to be in Volts, so:

\Delta V=65.10^{-3}V

Then, work is

W=1.6.10^{-19}.65.10^{-3}

W=1.04.10^{-20}

To move a potassium ion from the exterior to the interior of the cell, it is required W=1.04.10^{-20}J of energy.

In general, how did the water pressure in the tank change when mass was added to the fluid?
MissTica

Answer:

As the height increases the pressure must increase.

Explanation:

When we add masses to the fluid, the amount of fluid in the tank increases, therefore its height increases and the pressure is described by the expression

           P = ρ g h

where rho is constant for a given fluid and h is the height measured from the surface of the fluid.

As the height increases the pressure must increase.
